No Parents or Visitors in Dance Class

No Parents or visitors are allowed in the dance classroom. Dancers are more focused and perform better with less people in the room. Dance is also about learning independence. You will see your dancer grow so much in confidence from their dance

classes. If your child is feeling anxious about being in class without you, you can help by explaining to your child that they can show you what they learned after class.
